Chocolate, vanilla, existential horror, addiction, musical fantasythere's a flavor for everyone's misery. ICE CREAM MAN is a genre-defying comic book series, featuring disparate "one-shot" tales of sorrow, wonder, and redemption. Each installment features its own cast of strange characters, dealing with their own special sundae of suffering. And on the periphery of all of them, like the twinkly music of his colorful truck, is the Ice Cream Man's a weaver of stories, a purveyor of sweet treats. Friend. Foe. God. Demon. The man who, with a snap of his fingerslickety split! can change the course of your life forever. Written by W. MAXWELL PRINCE (ONE WEEK IN THE LIBRARY), with art by MARTN MORAZZO (SNOWFALL, GREAT PACIFIC). Collects ICE CREAM MAN #1-4

Horror plot done right, plus bonus points for having [a:Martín Morazzo 6074284 Martín Morazzo https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1540357570p2/6074284.jpg] be the illustrator because he captures horror so well. I love everything he has illustrated. I cannot wait to read volume 2 of this series.
For Goodreads purposes I'll round up to a 4. I enjoyed three out of the four stories. The third story is boring in my opinion and took away from the collection considering there are only 4 in the first volume. Since it's the first in the series I'll cut the author some slack and write it off as world building/story building.
The illustrations are dope and give it that edge that bumps up the rating for me. Hopefully it becomes scarier as I read each volume.
